Steelers Quarterback and Ohio native Ben Roethlisberger continues to improve following his motorcycle accident in Pittsburgh on Monday. Roethlisberger was not wearing a motorcycle helmet. He broke his jaw and other bones in his face and lost several teeth. The accident has renewed the helmet debate in Ohio, where most motorcyclists aren’t required to wear them.

Prospective Ohio drivers would see added training requirements and the Bureau of Motor Vehicles would be allowed to accept credit and debit cards under a state transportation budget that easily cleared the Ohio House on Tuesday.
